 - `yarn setup` from the project root directory.
   - This will fill in the required `.env` files you'll need in each of the application sections. Go fill those out before proceeding or else things won't work right.
 - `cd frontend && yarn install && cd ../server && yarn install` from the project root directory.

+To boot the server locally (run commands from root of repo):
+- ensure `server/.env.development` is set and filled out.
+`yarn dev:server`
  
+To boot the frontend locally (run commands from root of repo):
+- ensure `frontend/.env` is set and filled out.
+- ensure `VITE_API_BASE="http://localhost:3001/api"`
+`yarn dev:frontend`
